Chapter 135: River Official

Liang Qu took out the River Patrol Office uniform.

The River Patrol Office uniform is navy blue, the upper body is covered with white patterns of sea waves and auspicious clouds, the cuffs are tightened, and there is a black leather belt at the waist.

Riding a boat in the wind, it is naturally impossible to have a loose large robe; otherwise, it would be flapping. The whole set of clothes is tightened where it should be, which shows the figure very well. Liang Qu is tall and strong, and he looks majestic when wearing it.

It does have the meaning of the Jinyiwei Flying Fish suit in it.

Liang Qu took out the waist token from the official leather box, hung it at his waist, took the Fubo from the weapon rack, led the Profound Water Fork, packed a few beef pies in the kitchen for a midnight snack, and headed to the Shangrao Pier.

A few steps out of the main gate, Liang Qu was stopped by Li Libo, who had rushed over from the street.

"Brother Shui! Wait!"

Liang Qu stopped his steps and waited for Li Libo to run up: "Why are you in such a hurry? Do you have something to do with me?"

"It's not that I see you are about to leave, so I'll say it face-to-face." Li Libo caught his breath and took out a red page of paper from his bosom. "It's a happy event! Jiechang and I broke through the pass and became martial artists! Thanks to Brother Shui's blessing, the family has earned quite a bit of money in the past few months. I originally wanted to hold a big banquet for this day, who knew that Yixing Market would suddenly become Yixing Town.

Too many capable people came, and holding a big banquet for breaking through the pass is really not presentable, so I thought about only inviting people with good relationships to come to the house to eat and drink. I came to send you an invitation."

"When?"

"Three days later in the evening. We are holding it together for both families. You don't need to bring anything, just come to eat. Brother Shui, see if you have time."

With the blood qi elixirs sent by the master's wife, Li Libo and Chen Jiechang themselves had medium-to-high bone structure and were hardworking enough.

In the situation where they didn't have to worry about food and drink in the martial arts hall and had enough beef and mutton, they finally broke through the pass after more than half a year and became martial artists.

Unfortunately, if it were the original Yixing Market, a first-pass martial artist would be considered someone with face.

Who would have thought that the area would be divided into a key town? A small first-pass martial artist is not eye-catching at all. At least it has to be second-pass or third-pass, and that would take several more years. It is really bad luck.

But for the Li and Chen families, it is still an extraordinary achievement.

No matter how inconspicuous, it is still a martial artist!

Even if it is just a small first-pass martial artist, under the condition of decent talent and enough hard work, the cost paid must be at least a small hundred taels.

For an ordinary family to support a man to practice martial arts completely out of production for a small year, and to save a hundred taels of silver as cost, is comparable to a natural chasm.

Compared with the villagers of the original Yixing Market, the Li and Chen families have already taken the most difficult step.

This is all thanks to Liang Qu's blessing. Both of them are smooth, and they can stay in the martial arts hall as miscellaneous workers and get silver money every month, which can be said to be a complete turnaround. From now on, even if they can't get food from the river or the ground, they won't starve to death. It would be unreasonable not to invite him to the banquet.

"Three days later..." Liang Qu pondered for a while, feeling that he should have time, so he accepted the invitation. "Okay, I'll go over three days later."

Li Libo was beaming: "Master Liang gives face!"

Liang Qu grinned, only feeling that Li Libo hadn't changed at all: "What, is there anything else? If not, I'm going out on the boat."

"Out on the boat? Brother Shui, you still have to go out on the boat with this status? Eighth rank is a big official!"

"What big official? Ninth rank is sesame, I am from-eighth rank, just a little bit bigger than sesame, and I have to work." Liang Qu stretched out his little finger, looked through the tip of his nail at Li Libo's big tanned face, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck. "Why don't you two come too? Be a River Official and be my assistant."

He couldn't get the ninth-rank River Patrol Chief, but it was simple to recruit two River Officials.

"Me?" Li Libo pointed to his own nose. "What can I do?"

"You don't need to do anything, just take care of the fellow villagers, go to the water to stroll around more, and if something happens, come and tell me. I will solve it. River Officials are all doing this."

The River Patrol Office is not a whole air-dropped one.

It is true that the official positions above the seventh rank are filled seven or eight out of ten, and there are not many left, but the eighth-rank River Patrol Officer, ninth-rank River Patrol Chief, and even River Official, who really have to do work, are mostly empty, preparing to recruit locally. Local people also have more experience with the situation in nearby water areas.

This is also why Xu Yuelong issued an invitation as soon as he saw Liang Qu.

The strength is not bad, he is a local, and he is a fisherman, so his water skills won't be bad. The conditions are all full, which is very superior.

Compared with Li Libo and Chen Jiechang, except for the difference in strength, the other conditions are exactly the same.

Being a River Official doesn't require too high strength, otherwise, a dignified first-pass martial artist would come to be a small official?

So the main duty of the River Official is to patrol and report the situation. From River Patrol Chief to River Patrol Officer, they are responsible for taking action. Li Libo and Chen Jiechang are more than enough to do this job.

Li Libo rubbed his hands: "Being a River Official, how much is it a month?"

Liang Qu recalled: "One tael and three qian, it seems."

River Patrol Officer and River Patrol Chief have benefits, but River Officials have nothing. The boat must be self-prepared, the monthly salary is also small, and there is no annual salary.

"Ah, only this little? I earn much more as a miscellaneous worker in the martial arts hall."

"Isn't this nonsense? Can you get this price in other martial arts halls? Don't push your luck."

Li Libo laughed: "Okay, okay, okay, I don't think it's too little, I don't think it's too little. Not for that little salary and that little power, just to help Brother Shui."

"But if you go to be a River Official, the martial arts hall will give you less."

Great Shun doesn't have the saying of eight hours. As long as the body doesn't collapse, doubling it is no problem.

Don't be afraid of hard work, just be afraid of no work.

From day to night, everyone is happy to do as much work as they can. If they spend a little effort and can earn one more copper coin, they are happy to death.

The River Official patrols mainly at night, which happens to stagger with the daytime martial arts hall miscellaneous work, but the time for the two jobs is still too tight. The martial arts hall side must reduce time, and it is impossible to be the original price, but overall it must be more than a martial arts hall miscellaneous worker combined.

"It's okay, I can eat bitterness! Jiechang will definitely have no problem. I will tell him when I go back."

"Okay, then I'm leaving."

The boat equipped by the River Patrol Office is much larger than his covered boat, mainly because the hull is deeper. A long table and two rows of long benches connected to the boat body are placed inside. There are no bench legs, so it won't shake at will.

Liang Qu only needs to sit in the new boat and control the direction of the water boat to go wherever he wants, and he can even brew a pot of good tea on the table. It is much more comfortable.

After communicating in the spiritual link, the finless porpoise Round Head quickly floated out of the water and came to the side of the boat. Beside it was a small finless porpoise less than one meter long, which was very petite compared to Round Head's huge body of more than six meters.

"Is this your child?"

Round Head shook its head and patted the small finless porpoise's head with its fin.

The small finless porpoise pressed its small fins together toward Liang Qu, as if bowing.

Liang Qu raised his eyebrows.

It is too smart. Without domination and enlightenment, the degree of intelligence shown is about the same as the Fatty Catfish and the others, and it can communicate simply with its own kind.

It can be considered the first wall corner he successfully pried.

"Let the small finless porpoise go to rest with the Fatty Catfish and the others. We will stroll around and kill some water beasts to do tasks."

The Fatty Catfish and the three beasts also need to rest.

They catch fish for Uncle Chen and the fishermen in the early morning, are free in the morning, and sleep in the afternoon before catching fish again.

Liang Qu usually looks for the three beasts in the morning. After noon, he will not look for them unless necessary.

Round Head turned and called a few times with the small finless porpoise, as if communicating something, but Liang Qu couldn't hear their voices. Then the small finless porpoise left the water and swam toward the bottom of the water.

Liang Qu did not dominate the small finless porpoise and could not sense its position, but looking at Round Head's appearance, it should have been explained clearly, so he took it to hunt water beasts together. ===== CHAPTER 136 =====
